Hi Kiki, I'm in NC and I took a one day course last month. I just had my CNA exam last week and passed, I thought it was quite easy. I'm glad I didn't use the time to go to a 3 month or longer program...
You are right....prn employees aren't held to the same standards as permanent employees...I wasn't entitled to fmla. I think being a per diem employee could possibly work in my favor...we will see....
